Becoming a Disciple Maker

The Pursuit of Level 5 Disciple Making

Bobby Harrington and Greg Wiens

In this new book, Exponential’s discipleship curator and Discipleship.org’s co-founder Bobby Harrington joins with Greg Wiens (Healthy Growing Churches) to introduce and explore the pathway to becoming a disciple maker using Exponential’s Becoming Five framework. Focusing on helping individuals identify where they are on the disciple making scale (Levels 1 – 5) and what’s needed to become a Level 5 disciple maker, Bobby and Greg champion disciple making and equip future church multipliers to move beyond the prevailing worldly success scorecards. The book is positioned as a “field guide” to help leaders compare and contrast the differences between subtraction, addition and multiplication cultures in disciple making.

Currently less than 4% of US churches ever reproduce. We are serious about seeing that number increase to greater than 10%. We call it our “4 to 10” mission. I’m giving my life to that mission as each 1% increase in multiplying churches has an ASTOUNDING impact on the world. This new book continues the church multiplication conversation that Exponential seeks to steward."

His forte is assessing leaders and his passion is seeing the Kingdom expanded through challenging leaders toward health and impact.
